Yes, that's my normal use-case. I'd rather deal with Emacs than any
window manager.

When I start Emacs it's just one full screen frame and one window.
But I generally use 2-3 windows vertically when working.
FWIW, I asked on the #emacs IRC channel and at least some people
reported they usually do something similar.

Not in my use, at least, it doesn't mean that. I configure everything
to be 80 columns wide, if at all possible. Long lines are very
annoying, arguably probably even more so in my use-case than in
others.
